    Television when the level of English used for a children's programme is superior to the English used now for adult programmes. Furthermore, not a hint of an Americanism to be heard. Unlike today's English which is fast becoming indistinguishable from that of American English.

      Agreed, and I'm American. I grew up listening to real English!

      Apart from the outdated pronunciation, what makes this "level of English" high?? Languages change.

    Here we are in 2023. Progress has been made but Malta has lost so much that was unique & pictureseque.

      Sadly much progress has paved the way for developing changes which at times can tend to ruin and effect the island's heritage.
      Like take the trees around the Mosta dome church which recently were brutally trimmed leaving no branches for the regular fowl of the air to nest and rest in...😣🤷🏻‍♂️
